Yep, good ol' theatre hopping. I was going to do that because the Watchmen tickets were so much more expensive, ( $15 versus $4 ) until I looked in the theatre and realized there wasn't a single open seat. I ended up going to some other movie with a friend where we heckled the couple making out 2 rows ahead of us.

I ended up going to some other movie with a friend where we heckled the couple making out 2 rows ahead of us.Ha. That's why I go to the movies on like, Monday afternoons. Plus, if there's more than a couple other people in the theatre with me, I start feelin' stabby. ;) I can wait a couple days to see it, if it'll prevent my getting an assault charge.
Also- $15 for a movie ticket? Holy crap!
where we heckled the couple making out 2 rows ahead of us.My boyfriend and I were really hurt by that lba. I thought you were a friend! :(
Well next time ya ought not to be putting yer hands in spots they don't belong while in a public place, ya poofter! >:[

I can wait a couple days to see it, if it'll prevent my getting an assault charge.The only theatres we have are at a really upscale mall or arthouse theatres which charge an arm an a leg. I only really went because all my favorite pubs and bars were closed and everyone but myself and two others have taken off to their parents for spring break.

have taken off to their parents for spring break.
when i skimed over that, i thought you said "taken off their pants for spring break"
and i was like "what does that have to do with the price of tea in china?"
(which is an old inside joke me and my friends used to have, which basically meant, that is way off topic)
——-
i'm trying to motivate myself to go to the gym. because of my work schedule this week, i only got to go to 1 night of TKD, and one morning of PT. so i feel really lazy this week.
but not too fat, because i've been eating healthy. i didnt go out to eat once this week, and i havent had more than one serving at home. (just to let you know, 1 serving is pretty big anyways). my pants and stuff are feeling slightly more loose, and even if it's pyschosymatic, i still feel good about it.
"Taken off their pants for Spring Break" does not seem entirely inaccurate. From what I've heard. And by "heard", I mean "seen on adverts for "Girls Gone Wild!" videos.have taken off to their parents for spring break.

Ha. My grandmother says "What's that got to do with the price of tea in China?" ;)
"taken off their pants for spring break"
Well, I did at least. Might as well take advantage of everyone being gone. ;)
"Taken off their pants for Spring Break" does not seem entirely inaccurate. From what I've heard. And by "heard", I mean "seen on adverts for "Girls Gone Wild!" videos.I used to go to school with some of those girls in the adverts. There's a reason why that crew goes to Iowa State so often.
sooo i just watched Watchmen. not only was there gratuitous amounts of penis, but i also found out that i may never be original.
the story i wrote a couple days ago? yeah, it's now out the window. without ever having seen something, i was able to copy it. maybe i'll just start writing parady porno's. it seems to be what i'm good at.
to clarify, it's not the watchmen movie itself, just parts of it that if i were to reveal, it'd be a major spoiler.
I have to say- I am anticipating the Watchmen even more so now that I have learned there is an generally unacceptable amount of penis involved!
@Iba: I used to see the GGW film crews (and the dicks from C.O.P.S.) all over the place during Mardi Gras. Thankfully they don't venture far out of the Quarter or the Tulane campus bars, so it's easy to avoid that crap. But still.
I'm not getting better at all. And no one is being nice to me. My dad is just like "Oh, you're not even sick, stop whining…" and my mom is like "You should stop kissing Alexandra(my best friend who got sick just before I did)." Isn't that lovely? My own mother is making lesbian jokes about me now.
And I keep getting that sneezy feeling in my nose but not being able to sneeze.
What does everyone have against the big blue penis? That was the best part of the book.Let it be known: I am 100% pro-big blue penis.
Movie? What movie?
Big Blue Penis would be an awesome name for a band. Along with The Atomic Cocks. I'm going to start an air guitar band just so I can use one of those names for it.

Though Mardi Gras is probably their #1 event judging by the adverts. It just reminds me that I need to make a trip to Mardi Gras one year so I can find the best punk bar in the shittiest part of town and party in style.

Ha. I know the one for you! It's called the Saint. I think it's still there. Sean Yseult (of White Zombie fame) is one of the owners. I think I remember them having multiple ataris, the best juke box in town, a notorious photo booth, and $1 high life.
If I move back before next carnival, I'll offer ya a couch at my space. Or spot of floor, at least. ;)

My band name is set: "The Foxy Muffs"
NOW… I just have to learn to play electric guitar and get the rest of the band together. Ugh.
Well at least I've taken care of the hardest part :)

This is actually my first time reading this, i nearly peed laughing.
Wanna know what I hate? (Too bad. I'm tellin' ya anyway.)
I tend to look at way more random DD comics than I probably should. I hate it when I click on a comic's icon, and the art therein is dramatically different from the actual comic. I'm not talkin' about a color icon whose comic has B & W or toned art of a comparable quality. It's more like "really nice, digitally colored icon vs. crappy, rushed drawings done in pencil on dirty notebook paper". I understand why folks do this- ya wanna put your best foot forward and lure people in. I mean, I wouldn't have checked out the comic if the icon accurately represented the artwork, right? But dude- you just wasted 45 seconds of my life that I'll never get back. Sure, ya might've gotten my page view, but you're also the recipient of my eternal spite and disgust. ;)

Sounds like a good bar. But then again my main requirements are that there's at least punk or ska playing and maybe a few drunken guys playing instruments.
I might take you up on that offer if I manage the cash before next spring. I usually wind up sleeping on porches and truck beds when I go on a roadtrip anyway.
Or it could just be "blue penis" but that sounds like some sort of techno spaceship to me…That just sounds like a bad Norwegian porno to me. I just just going to start an air guitar punk band named "The Atomic Cocks" because it's a cool name and I'm musically challenged.
Got to go see Watchmen yesterday.
As most of you said, for some reason, it seemed like they wanted to emphasize Jon's penis. It's like, "Hey, we know you came to see this movie so you can see it. Don't deny it." Either that, or he refused to wear pants XD
And I also got to see my best friend's brother's band play live last night. Pretty fun stuff, except for the druggies behind us mosh pitting or something. Kinda weird.
I also finished the Chapter Page for Part 1 of Chapter 2! And I'm about to ink Page 1 after I come back from my run. Or maybe I'll eat something first so I don't die. Not literally die, just…you know.
Sounds like a good bar. But then again my main requirements are that there's at least punk or ska playing and maybe a few drunken guys playing instruments.Mostly it's punk, ska, old country, with a bit of the obligatory 80's pop thrown in for good measure. We used to roll in and pump $20 into the jukebox first thing, to make sure we'd hear music we liked all night; the first song was always the Bouncing Souls' "Bullying the Jukebox". ;) Great bar, it is.
I hate it when people say 'good bye' or similar and then keep talking. 'Good bye' means that it's the end of the conversation. It also means that I'm tired and have more important things to do than listen to you gabble on about what some guy I don't know or care about said to some other guy I don't know or care about about sleeping with a woman I don't know or care about.
Another annoying characteristic of these people is they then accuse you of being rude for hanging up on them. After the first three 'yeah I'm seriously going now's', I am well within my rights to shove your phone down your throat, so hanging up is best you're going to get.
I constantly look back on those days when I had absolutely no social life and wish I could go back to them.
Oh and by the way, it sounds sexist because it is sexist, you bigoted prick.

Yeah, that's really annoying when it's someone who you don't really want to talk to to begin with. I usually just pretend not to hear whatever they say after the first or second goodbye and hang up, unless it sounds like some sort of emergency.
In a way, though, if it's someone you're good friends with it's kind of nice when you don't really stop talking until long after you both say goodbye because you still have so much to say to each other.
